Hi Andy...

I agree with you, having DVI and SPDIF are key, and although there are a few MINI-ITX boards that offer SPDIF, DVI is a hard find.

I have no idea how they work, but there are DVI expansion cards for MINI-ITX... Like this for the M, MII series...

I have no info (and I have looked) regarding resolution, whether it can do widescreen, HD, etc...

I had hoped DVI would have shown up onboard years ago, but nothing yet. Not sure if waiting would help. Even the latest board just released is DVI-free:

I hadn't looked at the Serener case you listed, but I see that it is far more fexible than the one I have (GS-L01). Mine only supports two (older) boards, and the one you linked supports VIA EPIA M, VIA EPIA ML, VIA EPIA MII, VIA EPIA SP... cool.

Oh... and welcome to the board. Please update us on this system! Thanks!
